Twin Peaks Season 1 Episode 12 Review: Part 12

Audrey Horne truly is back when her entire first scene is about a group of people you don't know, yet there is no chance that you are missing a second of that conversation.

Or in other words, Twin Peaks Season 1 Episode 12 finally brought Audrey into the mix and managed to make things interesting with Sarah Palmer's strange behavior.

The only thing truly missing, in a way that you could really pick up on it, was any version of Cooper. There was that small moment when Cooper tried to play ball with Dougie's son, and that is it.

Once again I ask, do we have the time for this to still be the kind of content that Cooper appears in?

Audrey is back and everything makes sense again.

Or it will when we find out who the hell Tina, Billy, and Chuck are. It might also help to know who Charlie is to Audrey, besides a husband that she doesn't care for much and is only with for some unspecified but hinted at reason.

Audrey can make any scene she is in memorable, but why take that as a challenge worth accepting?

Everything else stood out besides Audrey, and even she felt unfamiliar this time around. She has grown up and is in no way the innocent girl that we knew all that time ago.

Diane thought to use Google Maps to figure out what those numbers meant, and I'm shocked that no one else thought to do that first.

She is planning something though, which I can't say I truly mind because possible evil Diane is a favorite of mine already.

It might be a bit of a reach though since she always comes off as very conflicted when replying to this Mr. C.

But as always, I'm generally just holding out some hope for a Diane/Audrey meeting. She has now connected Ruth's body to something in Twin Peaks so why not visit and maybe end up meeting the other woman in Cooper's old life?

Together they might figure it all out before anyone else that is trying to connect everything.

Although, Audrey should maybe meet with her father about Richard and the key that got delivered.

The confusion and that creepy factor behind Sarah in the store and at home was dark enough to leave you wanting more.

Is there a presence inside Sarah's mind that isn't all that positive? Or is it not as bad as we are led to believe? How long has this even been happening now?

At the end of the day, this is a great reminder of how much Sarah is suffering and will continue to suffer from. Losing her entire family and still trying to carry on so many years later is so courageous.

Now, if only it didn't look like she was plagued with the same sort of issues that Laura found herself caught up in. That family really and truly cannot seem to catch a break.

Cooper wasn't around, in any version of that so far. This isn't something that was worth dwelling on when compared to what was shown this time around, but it is something that has started to bother me.

What if this entire revival will be everyone else solving everything themselves? Maybe Cooper will just never return to his old self and the Evil Cooper will continue to exist in his disturbing way.

At this point, I wouldn't even be shocked if Cooper is meant to be on the sidelines forever because at first watching him being all clueless was worrying and now it has just gotten tiring.

What was the highlight of this episode for you? What story do you want to see more of? Did you wish you saw more of someone this time around? How was that Audrey debut for you? What are some theories you have about everything coming together? Let us know below.
